This session is for everyone that needs to learn more about how the iPad can benefit legal professionals.

The Lawyerist says iPad is Indispensible

By Patrick DiDomenico News No Comments »

In a nice post on The Lawyerist.com, Sam Glover concludes that the iPad might not be a complete replacement for hard-core document drafting on a computer, but it’s better for just about everything else.

In his post, Glover, an admitted “iFanboy,” highlights the iPad’s portability, speed, and great apps as primary reasons for it’s utility for lawyers.

He also points out, with some examples, how the iPad doesn’t exactly replace mainstream word processing applications, like Microsoft Word.

Finally, Glover gets into some good detail about how he uses cloud storage and file syncing service, DropBox to easily get files on and off the device.  We like DropBox, too.  If you don’t yet have an account, you can get 2GB of free DropBox storage here.

Where are the iPad2′s at?

By Michael Aginsky News No Comments »

News of the iPad2 release day sellout is all over the web. It seems the inability to pre-order the iPad2 prior  to launch day has contributed significantly to the lack of availability of Apple’s latest must have device. Was the omission of pre-orders for the iPad2 just another ploy by Apple to increase demand while they control the supply. Continue reading »

Sir Richard Branson’s New iPad Project

By Patrick DiDomenico apps, News No Comments »

Sir Richard Branson, best known perhaps for being known (but also for launching 400 or so companies) and for envelope pushing, has launched an iPad-only magazine called Project.  The app is free, but individual issues (either the U.K., U.S., or Canadian versions) will cost you $2.99 a pop.

The first thing you’ll notice is that Project is not simply a magazine that displays on the iPad.  That would have been cool enough.  Rather, right from the cover, you realize that this will be a different experience.  Play the 18 second cover video (link after the break) and you’ll see what I mean.  The cover may not offer much in terms of utility, or information, but it announces, in a quasi-futuristic way that this is not your father’s glossy old magazine from the mid 2010s.

George W. Bush is an iPad Person. He also likes “the Facebook.”

By Patrick DiDomenico Applications, iBooks, News No Comments »

In a recent interview with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, former President George W. Bush declared himself to be a former BlackBerry person, but now he’s an “iPad person.”  You can see the entire video interview on Mashable.

Skip to 6:00 in the video to get right to the iPad person comment.  Bush also wants you to buy his new book, Decision Points, in both print and electronic version.  The book doesn’t appear to be in the iBook Store yet, but you can buy it on Amazon and read it on the Kindle App.   And please stay tuned to see Bush fist bump Zuckerberg – it’s classic (fast forward to 14:25 to see it).
